Weekdays in December from 11-1 and 1-3pm we will host workshops to create fun, easy, and thoughtful handmade gifts. $25 includes materials, instruction, and machine use. Space is limited, so make your reservation as soon as possible! Basic sewing instructions will not be covered - consider taking our Sewing Machine Basics class if you are a new sewist. Students receive a 10% discount on materials purchased during class, so stock up to make extras!

Thursday December 1: Pillowcases: Learn to make a standard-sized pillow case using the “hot dog” method.

Tuesday December 6: 2-sided zipper pouch. This fun spin on the classic zippered pouch has too many uses to count!

Wednesday December 7: Lanyards are a great way to keep track of your keys, display a work badge, or even keep lip balm handy in the dry weather. Teachers especially love our reversible version.

Thursday December 8: The ruffley Key Fob is a fun and oh-so-functional way to wrangle your keys. I’d never be able to find them at the bottom of my purse without it!

Friday December 9: Cloth Napkins: Learn to put a beautifully finished mitered corner on these earth-friendly reusable napkins. Stock up on different prints for an everyday look or to spice up the holiday table. These make a great hostess gift!

Tuesday December 13: Sleep masks are a necessity for the traveler or sleep-diva in your life.

Wednesday December 14: (1-3pm session only). Speaking of gifts for the traveler, why not give a one-of-a-kind luggage tag and bag-flag set to help the jet-setter identify their suitcase?

Thursday December 15: You’ll be bringing a bottle of wine to your neighbors and coworkers anyway, why not make it extra thoughtful and unique with a handmade wine tote? You’ll definitely want a few of these on hand as last minute gifts.

Friday December 16: And for the beer enthusiast? Koozies! Keep your bottled beverage cold with style. We haven't forgotten the coffee or tea lover. Make a mug sleeve to keep the heat in the drink and off of your hand. They’re unique, they’re Eco-friendly, and they’re functional. Pair it with a mug and you’ve got a great gift!

Tuesday December 20: Microwavable bowl pot holder

Wednesday December 21: All of your gift shopping is done by now, right? (Wink, Wink). Let's make a reusable fabric gift bag. I always reuse gift bags - this will be the gift that keeps on giving, year after year.
